Not sure what to say?

Brian was my first boss at Boeing. I was only 19 when I hired into Boeing as a drafter and was placed in the Marine Systems back in 1978. It was scary being a girl is a sea of men. Brian was so protective of me and would tell the men who came around my desk to get back to work. He was so kind. He and his wife attended my wedding in 1979. I still have the crystal glasses they gave me. Great human and person.

Uncle Brian; what a great guy. An inspiration to me on how to conduct oneself through the journey of life. A very sincere, caring and loving person with a good sense of humour. A person who would listen as well as give honest advice and help to anyone asking for it. I am so glad I had the opportunity to visit him and his family just a few months ago. It was great to sit on the deck sharing a Crown Royal whist we peacefully watched aircraft landing and ships a sailing down the sound.

Uncle Brian was a generous and caring man. He had a great sense of humour that I always enjoyed when i was around him.
Awesome family man and role model for his children and great grandchildren. You will be missed always.
My condolences to Aunt Mary, Marty & Jennifer, Diane&Jeff and all the families and friends.

I remember Uncle Brian's sense of humour and his strong, gentle presence. When he was with you, he was with you, and you could feel his warmth. I knew Uncle Brian most as a kid, but he is a reference point for me as a man.

I send my deepest condolences to you: Aunt Mary, Marty and Dianne and all of your families. When I think of Brian I feel nothing but love. I send you mine during this difficult time.

Uncle Brian was an incredible inspiration to our family. A class act with a great sense of humour.. He made the best smoked salmon, a recipe that will never be forgotten. He used to enjoy getting picked on by Aunt Mary. She really knew how to get the best out of Uncle Brian. And a remarkable career also having worked on one of the finest Canadian military aircraft of all time-the Avro Arrow. Thanks for sharing those stories with me. You will be truly missed. My thoughts go to Aunt Mary and...

Uncle Brian was unbelievably special to my husband Mark, his nephew, growing up, and continued this love and kindness with myself and our three children, Karlee, Justin and Marty. RIP Uncle Brian , your incredible smile and gentleness will always stay with us forever! Our condolences to Auntie Mary, Marty, Jennifer, Diane, Jeff and families. Dana Callan and family xo

Uncle Brian was a King among Kings, an honourable, humble and generous man. He deeply loved his wife Mary and adored and cherished his children Marty and Diane, and grandchildren. He will be forever missed but never forgotten. Peace and love, always. Richard Koegl - Toronto, Canada

Brian was such a lovely and kind person. We have many fond memories of time spent in Hawaii with Brian and Mary and July 4th celebration's at daughter Diane and son-in-law Jeff's home at Mission Beach. What a beautiful legacy you have left, Brian!
We will miss you.
